DESCRIPTION

Please Note: This sweater is knit by hand and colors, illustrations and sizes will vary slightly from photos and measurements.

What started as a doodle from our founder’s imagination became the Best Buds Sweater, a little ode to the friends who follow us everywhere. On the back, a happy pup carries a bird on his head, two best friends, just out enjoying the day.

Hand knit from a soft alpaca and wool blend in the same relaxed, oversized shape as our Azure Dolphin and Heritage Spiral, it’s made for silly fun and serious coziness. The dog and bird duo on the back is a mix of hand knitting and embroidery, finished with wide ribbed cuffs and hem, all handmade using natural fibers.

Banjo Blue: a dusty light blue with hand-embroidered flowers on the sleeve.
Buster Brown: a deep chocolate gray-brown with hand-embroidered flowers and two knit stripes on the sleeve.
